Though it would probably help if I got my examples the correct way around.

 	package MySite::Controller::Profile;
 	use parent qw(Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu MySite::Controller::Base);

 	package MySite::Controller::Profile;
 	use parent qw(MySite::Controller::Base Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu);
does not.
